I was just letting things happen and taking the open doors rather than trying to breach those closed doors and forcing things, because that's all I knew how to do in my life. And it brought me back to when I was a little kid and I was fishing for Native Brook trout in like the mountains by my house, right and catching little guys, you know, like this big, but they were like painted. It looked like god took a paintbrush to them.
Ever wondered what it's like to be a detective grappling with the weight of organized crime, narcotics, and personal demons? Meet Brad Waudby, a 13-year veteran detective from Northern New Jersey.

He doesn’t just share the highs and lows of his career; he digs deep into the mental and emotional battles that come with wearing the badge. From investigating major crimes to struggling with addiction, Brad's story is a raw, unfiltered look at the human side of law enforcement. He talks candidly about the stigma surrounding mental health and addiction in the police force and how he found the strength to seek help.

If you're curious about how someone can pull themselves out of the darkest places and come back stronger, this episode is a must-listen. Brad’s journey is not just about personal recovery but also about breaking down barriers and stigmas that prevent many from seeking help.
